John Cooper (composer)
John Cooper (c. 1570 – 1626), also known as Giovanni Coprario or Coperario, was an English composer, viol player and lutenist.
He changed his name in the early 17th century. It is often said he did this after a visit to Italy, though there is no evidence he had been to the country. From 1622 he served and may have taught the Prince of Wales, for whom he continued to work upon his succession as Charles I. His longtime patron was Edward Seymour, Earl of Hertford, for whom he taught William Lawes.
Among Cooper's works are fantasias, suites and other works for viols and violins, and two collections of songs, Funeral Teares (1606) and Songs of Mourning: Bewailing the Untimely Death of Prince Henry (1613). He also penned the treatise on composition, Rules how to Compose.
According to Ernst Meyer, Cooper was a Londoner who italianized his name as Italian music and musicians became more fashionable, and spent much of his life as a musician in the royal court.
Ninety-six fantasias in between three and six voices, most of them in two Oxford and Royal College of Music collections, were known to exist by Cooper (as of 1946). Meyer also notes that most of Cooper's five and six part fantasias are mainly transcriptions, or imitations, of his madrigals, but that his fantasias for three or four instrumental parts are, formally especially, independently interesting.

Gray's Inn
The Honourable Society of Gray's Inn, commonly known as Gray's Inn, is one of the four Inns of Court (professional associations for barristers and judges) in London. To be Called to the Bar and practise as a barrister in England and Wales, an individual must belong to one of these Inns. Located at the intersection of High Holborn and Gray's Inn Road in Central London, the Inn is both a professional body and a provider of office accommodation (chambers) for many barristers. It is ruled by a governing council called "Pension", made up of the Masters of the Bench (or "Benchers"), and led by the Treasurer, who is elected to serve a three-year term. The Inn is known for its gardens, or Walks, which have existed since at least 1597.
Gray's Inn does not claim a specific foundation date; there is a tradition that none of the Inns of Court claims to be any older than the others. Law clerks and their apprentices have been established on the present site since at least 1370, with records dating from 1391. During the 15th and 16th centuries, the Inn grew steadily with great prestige, reaching its pinnacle during the reign of Elizabeth I. The Inn was home to many important barristers and politicians, most notably Francis Bacon, and counted Elizabeth herself as a patron. Thanks to the efforts of prominent members such as William Cecil and Gilbert Gerard, Gray's Inn became the largest of the four by number, with over 200 barristers recorded as members. During this period, the Inn became noted for the masques and revels that it threw, and William Shakespeare is believed to have performed there at least once.

100 Years of Women at Gray's Inn
Watch as our Members reflect on their experiences, as we celebrate 100 years since the first woman was called to the Bar by Gray's Inn. Edith Hesling was called to the Bar by Gray’s Inn on 13 June 1923. She was the first woman to be declared an utter barrister by the Inn. Yet, this was not the only time she would make history in her lifetime. She later served as the first woman to preside over a County Court. Since then there have been a series of women trailblazers, called by Gray’s Inn, who go on to break new ground in the legal profession. Frances Claudia Wright became the first Sierra Leonean woman to be called to the Bar in 1941. Rose Heilbron became the first female judge to sit in the Old Bailey. Lady Hale became the youngest person to be appointed to the Law Commission and the fi...

Ena Collymore-Woodstock is the first female magistrate in Jamaica.
Gray’s Inn is now the professional home to over 4,000 women students, pupils, barristers, and judges. They make up 40% of our membership.
This year is the time to celebrate their achievements, to reflect on the challenges they have faced and most of all recognise our Members for the striking individuality they bring to the Bar.

Watch as our Members reflect on their experiences, as we celebrate 100 years since the first woman was called to the Bar by Gray's Inn.
Edith Hesling was called to the Bar by Gray’s Inn on 13 June 1923. She was the first woman to be declared an utter barrister by the Inn. Yet, this was not the only time she would make history in her lifetime. She later served as the first woman to preside over a County Court.
Since then there have been a series of women trailblazers, called by Gray’s Inn, who go on to break new ground in the legal profession. Frances Claudia Wright became the first Sierra Leonean woman to be called to the Bar in 1941. Rose Heilbron became the first female judge to sit in the Old Bailey. Lady Hale became the youngest person to be appointed to the Law Commission and the first woman to serve as President and Justice of the Supreme Court. Ena Collymore-Woodstock is the first female magistrate in Jamaica.
Gray’s Inn is now the professional home to over 4,000 women students, pupils, barristers, and judges. They make up 40% of our membership.
This year is the time to celebrate their achievements, to reflect on the challenges they have faced and most of all recognise our Members for the striking individuality they bring to the Bar.

The Honourable Society of Gray's Inn, commonly known as Gray's Inn, is one of the four Inns of Court (professional associations for barristers and judges) in London. To be Called to the Bar and practise as a barrister in England and Wales, an individual must belong to one of these Inns. Located at the intersection of High Holborn and Gray's Inn Road in Central London, the Inn is both a professional body and a provider of office accommodation (chambers) for many barristers. It is ruled by a governing council called "Pension", made up of the Masters of the Bench (or "Benchers"), and led by the Treasurer, who is elected to serve a three-year term. The Inn is known for its gardens, or Walks, which have existed since at least 1597.

If you decide to embark on the journey to becoming a barrister, then one of the first steps you will need to take will be to join an Inn of Court. There are four and each varies significantly in terms of their culture, scholarships and opportunities. You can only apply to one Inn, so it’s important that you choose wisely.
We spoke to some of our Members to hear why they feel at home at Gray’s.

Hi everyone! On 24.11.2022, I was called to the Bar of England and Wales at Gray's Inn, one of the four Inns of Court. I am unregistered, but I can now call myself a barrister (or utter barrister as it is on my certificate)! It was a phenomenal day that marked the end of one chapter in my life and the beginning of another.
I hope you enjoy this short vlog about that special day!

This is the story of Edith Hesling. She was the first woman to be called to the Bar by Gray’s Inn on 13 June 1923.
Today marks 100 years since that moment. Together with our Members, we have worked to commemorate the occasion by reflecting on the last century: the successes achieved, the challenges faced and the work that’s still to be done.
The full film was debuted to Members on Monday 12 June, and we want to thank everyone who joined us. An upcoming screening is scheduled in Manchester – Edith Hesling’s home city – on Thursday 29 June.
Tickets are still available to join us in Manchester. Sign up today: https://www.graysinn.org.uk/events/100-years-of-women-at-grays-inn-manchester/

Every year hundreds of would-be scholars apply for a scholarship at Gray's Inn to support their journey to a career at the Bar. How are these vital scholarships actually awarded? Is the process fair? And why does it take so long to hear back?
Lisa Danielle Bowles, a Gray's Inn Hale Scholar (in 2019), takes you behind the scenes to meet the people involved and find out how scholarship applications are decided.
Meet our Chair of Scholarships, David Forsdick QC, some of the barristers who shortlist applications and conduct interviews, and the Education staff working hard to process scholarships throughout the year.

John Cooper (composer)
John Cooper (c. 1570 – 1626), also known as Giovanni Coprario or Coperario, was an English composer, viol player and lutenist.
He changed his name in the early 17th century. It is often said he did this after a visit to Italy, though there is no evidence he had been to the country. From 1622 he served and may have taught the Prince of Wales, for whom he continued to work upon his succession as Charles I. His longtime patron was Edward Seymour, Earl of Hertford, for whom he taught William Lawes.
Among Cooper's works are fantasias, suites and other works for viols and violins, and two collections of songs, Funeral Teares (1606) and Songs of Mourning: Bewailing the Untimely Death of Prince Henry (1613). He also penned the treatise on composition, Rules how to Compose.
According to Ernst Meyer, Cooper was a Londoner who italianized his name as Italian music and musicians became more fashionable, and spent much of his life as a musician in the royal court.
Ninety-six fantasias in between three and six voices, most of them in two Oxford and Royal College of Music collections, were known to exist by Cooper (as of 1946). Meyer also notes that most of Cooper's five and six part fantasias are mainly transcriptions, or imitations, of his madrigals, but that his fantasias for three or four instrumental parts are, formally especially, independently interesting.
